Spice N Steam use to have great food. The quality and taste has declined since my last couple visits. Some of my favorite dishes were also no longer on the menu. The main cuisines can have costly surcharges to modify a plate. I added broccoli to my Mongolian Beef plate and $5 was added to the cost of the bill. I will not be visiting again.

What a very special place. Outside seems unassuming, but once inside, you will be seated in a lovely dining area. The menu is so special, in variants of dishes suited for nearly all pallets. Vegetarian, dim sum, beautifully curated authentic Cantonese dishes. Came in with a craving for rice noodles, ordered the brisket and tendon rice noodles dish and it is exceptional. The mushroom buns were out of this world, we are usually steamed pork bun types, but glad we tried something new. The owner gave us a suggestion to pan heat the buns, thus elevating the dish even more. The shumai is chefs kiss - so good. Their in house made sauce - the XO sauce with a bit of vinegar, home made chili oil. Just - wow.
We are visiting from out of the area and have spent time in Lane county here and there the past few years. This visit solidified it for us. This is our favorite Chinese - Cantonese restaurant. Not your typical orange chicken, etc etc. so if that's what you are looking for, perhaps try somewhere else. But if you want your taste buds to explode - I urge you to try this place. The service is top notch - everyone is so kind. I will be thinking about this place and recommending to anyone passing through the area,until we are back in the county and able to enjoy it again.
Thank you - Spice and Steam!

Family style servings, out of everything we ordered only one thing we didn't care for. Staff was friendly and helpful. Cute place!

Everything was amazing! The food was out within 5 minutes of ordering. I had the sweet and sour chicken with shrimp fired rice. The portions were large enough for 3 people to share! I will dine at this place every time I am in West Eugene, Oregon!

The food was really good but our experience was tainted by a forced tip. We ordered a large amount of food (at higher than normal prices for dim sum). We are a family of 5. We have three small children 9, 7 and 3. They considered this a LARGE group and added a tip to the bill. We always tip well and I understand adding a gratuity to parties of 8 or more, but 5 people!? I didn’t see anywhere that an 18% tip will be added to your bill for parties of 5 or more. We aren’t a needy family. We didn’t ask the waitress for anything extra after she served our food except an extra couple of napkins. We splurged for a birthday dinner today. The food is really good but it’s a place that a family with three kids can only go so often. Inflation is here and I understand it completely. Attached for your information is what our bill looked like- Each Sesame Ball is $3 each, etc.

The food, rooted in Cantonese cuisine, was clean and refined in flavor. It felt genuinely authentic. We ordered some dim sum, Peking duck, and soup, all of which were absolutely delicious. Our server, Sunny, provided excellent service, making the entire meal thoroughly enjoyable. I’m planning to revisit soon to try other dishes, and this place has officially made it onto my personal list of highly recommended restaurants—anytime, for anyone. The mango pudding for dessert was also outstanding.

I rated them awhile ago. But yesterday we had a wonderful experience, Emma goes above and beyond her job, so personable. She made the meal complete with her great service and friendly personality♡ Oh food delish too!!
Great food. Fast service. HUGE portions. We had chicken fried rice and walnut shrimp and it was enough for both of us. We will be back if we're ever in the area.

Food has gone downhill in the past few years. Sun sum was okay but chicken was dry and tasteless.

Excellent food, great service, lots of seating, easy to get in and out of. I wish the parking situation was better but it's pretty good for downtown Eugene.

The orange chicken was delicious and generously portioned. Excellent rice on the side 🍚 😋 Our server was so kind and the food arrived at our table very promptly! Will return! The decorations are cool too.
